I want to represent the ppl, but I'm just a normal person, but broke as fuck
I'd be up against Bert van Manen, in Forde QLD, he's a vanilla candidate easily beaten by someone like me with audacity & passion

Let's plan this
To take on the LNP I'm gonna need money & support, lots of it.
I'm willing to do this but only if my community supports me.
I'm a proud Labor member but my problem is that even if Labor takes me on I'll always have a higher obligation to my community ...
๐
than to my party, that doesn't mean I don't support my party it just means I have a higher obligation to the Australian ppl & Forde. I'll vote along ALP lines but if elected by my community then I owe a greater obligation to them, my party second. That's OK

That is where I stand, I'd love to represent my community & be a real voice in Canberra
I believe I'd do a good job, independents are the way to go & I'll advocate for conscience votes on every single Bill but I will, for the most part, vote along Labor Party lines

I'm not sure if it's legal to set up a 'Go Fund Me' Page for political ambitions, in fact, I'm sure it's not, so I have to navigate the the political landscape that facilitates money to candidates
David Littleproud is in a relationship with Annabelle Douglas- started in 2018
Turnbull introduced #bonkban Feb 18- Littleproud replaced Barnaby Joyce Feb 18- hence the big cover-up of his relationship with HIS media advisor in 18
๐ #auspol#insiders
Notice the difference in LinkedIn records back then & now- Ms Douglas has taken steps to cover-up her employment history with Minister Littleproud
By rights, Littleproud should've lost his job in 2018 for his Ministerial breach- he didn't, still has his job

2. 10 days paid DV leave for perpetrators with daily or twice daily check-ins at a police station and 20 hours of free intensive counselling over those 10 days.
This 10 day period is critical to diffuse tensions.

Way back in December 2019, remember @senbmckenzie was the then Agriculture Minister?
She resigned in disgrace from the Ministry in Feb 2020

When Bridge was Minister for Agriculture, she approved this 'Ad hoc/One-off' grant to Rural Business Tasmania for $349,999.99 for the purpose of: 'Support Rural Financial Counselling Service Programme'
They are currently promoted on the Dept of Ag website.

Now, here's the interesting part
You may recall that Bridge was once married to Tim Edwards & they had four kids before divorcing.
In her first speech to parliament she paid tribute to her children.
